Hi,
What is actually happening here ?
I have FreeBSD (8.2 upgraded from original 8.1) on /dev/sda2.
I do these entries from Fedora 14.

-t, --types vfstype
The argument following the -t is used to indicate the filesystem
type. The filesystem types which are currently supported
include: ...
..., ufs, ...

Mount options for ufs
ufstype=value
UFS is a filesystem widely used in different operating systems.
The problem are differences among implementations. Features of
some implementations are undocumented, so its hard to recognize
the type of ufs automatically. That's why the user must specify
the type of ufs by mount option. Possible values are:
old Old format of ufs, this is the default, read only.
(Don't forget to give the -r option.)
44bsd For filesystems created by a BSD-like system
(NetBSD,FreeBSD,OpenBSD).

# mount -t ufs -o ro,ufstype=44bsd /dev/sda2 /media/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
# mount -v -t auto /dev/sda2 /media/
mount: you didn't specify a filesystem type for /dev/sda2
I will try type ufs
